Back

N-Propyl Acetate (NPAC)

n-Propyl Acetate is a colorless clarified liquid with aromatic odor. Slightly soluble in water, soluble in alcohols, ketones, esters, oils and other organic solvents.

Usage

(1) Used as a solvent for paints, printing inks, etc. n-Propyl acetate is slow and fast drying agent, used in elastic printing ink and gravure printing ink, especially used in polyolefin and polyamide film printing.

(2) It has excellent solubility for many synthetic resins, and is an effective solvent for many synthetic resins such as ethyl cellulose, nitrocellulose, styrene and methacrylate resins.

(3) Industrially (PTA) used as an azeotrope for acetic acid recovery; also commonly used as a dehydrating agent in industry.

Packing

Can be transported in tanker trucks.

Storage

It should be stored in a cool, ventilated and dry place. Attention should be paid to moisture-proof during storage, and stored separately from strong oxidizing agent, strong alkali and strong acid.
